Re: How Much Does Your 'church' Pay?

The way I see it...living modestly is biblical. The rest of the hundreds of thousands of $$ could be used in foreign missions, home missions, outreach to community, food for the many out of work etc.

I'm not saying that TPC hasn't been doing this, but anybody receiving that much money and fancy autos can go to the head and become high-minded.

I just cannot imagine living on this much money.

A vast majority in the "romanist" system don't get paid near this

If the average church in America is 75, that means the average preacher doesnt get paid much. Bitter people will point out the abusers who are in a very small minority and will make it seem that this is the rule. They are the exception.
